First time customer. Ordered via their app and did an in-store pickup. The app was very usable and I easily made my selections and breezed through the checkout. Order was ready when I arrived except for a shake that they wanted to make when I got there. Pretty excited when they gave me the shake with a real shake straw. I should have checked the order as the sauces were omitted but they were on the receipt. The rest of the order was accurate. The food was average. First impression is that there are better choices in our area. read more

It's so nice to see new businesses opening in lake wales. We decided to eat inside but the drive through was busy. There is a nice outside covered patio. The staff were really nice. The place was clean. There were busy inside as well and it was nice to see that staff stayed on top of the table to keep the place clean. The food. What can I say it was ok. Lots of fired chicken and chicken wings. The sauces were delicious and the fries were tasty. The drinks especially the raspberries lemon was really good. So all in all it's was ok. read more

This place is great. It is also always busy. Food was hot and fresh. Service was friendly. I had the salad with grilled chicken, and my husband had the chicken strips basket with fries. We also had the Oreo cheesecake and brownie layer deserts. Ambiance is typical fast food place. They also have some shaded outdoor seating. read more

I'm not one to leave bad reviews. I hate saying bad things about businesses, especially new/small ones... But do NOT come here.. Here are all the issues I had with Slim Chickens. 1. The food is extremely mediocre. It was dry, not seasoned, and overcooked. You might as well go to zaxbys (for a better price and food) 2. The chicken tenders are EXTREMELY tiny... no joke 3. The customer service was HORRIBLE, to say the least. I had a pick up order, and I was standing in line for 5 minutes, and all of the workers just stared at me. Or they were laughing amongst themselves. Mind you... They already helped 2 customers in front of me... 4. There was a strand of hair in my food 5. The location on the website and the app is wrong. It brings you to the middle of NOWHERE 5 minutes down the road... Side note: It's actually really nice looking on the outside and inside. read more

My husband and I tried this relatively new location for lunch yesterday. We were greeting with smiling faces who offered recommendations. We both ordered chicken tenders and fries and it came with Texas Toast. The food came out quickly and was hot and fresh. The inside was nice and clean. They have a drive thru. We tried the honey BBQ sauce and the honey mustard for dipping but they have like a dozen or more choices to pick from. We recommend. read more

We picked Slim Chickens because we like to try new places, especially new chicken places, so we came here and unfortunately won't be back. Why I didn't see it coming when it took exactly 3 minutes for my food to come out from the time that I ordered it, that the wings would not only be undercooked, but old as well. Guess we must've been too close to closing time? God I hope that's why and not the norm. I won't be returning and I can't recommend it to anyone but if you do decide to go, I would recommend going earlier than an hour and a half before closing then maybe you'll have a better experience than we did. read more

Customer service is on it, food comes out hot and they have Coke products which is a huge plus. Haven't had the pleasure of going inside yet but seems really nice on the outside. *Quick update, Definitely order from the right line, definitely hit or miss with service as children run the asylum. Got in line as before waited forever, finally ordered our food and it's definitely not worth the price. Overcooked and seems to continue to go downhill like Freddy's. Is it just the area or me?

Ordered online. They forgot to pack some mac and cheese, not a huge deal but we didn't notice until we left. The manager insisted that they would not refund the Mac and cheese unless we came back. We were already 30 mins away so this wasn't an option for us. They need to pay more attention packing orders, and have a better process to manage issues with orders, especially because their location is quite out of the way. Food was good, but not overwhelming. It's chicken. read more

We arrived a bit after 5 pm, too late to take advantage of early bird food specials but in time for happy hour (which ends at 6). This gave us 2-for-1 pricing on draft beer and house wine. We were seated immediately. By the time we left (around 6:30) there was a wait. We ordered drinks, and these and rolls were delivered with cinnamon butter and pats of plain butter. I ordered the Tuesday special, grouper "fingers," salad (soup is also a choice), and a sweet potato. My husband had linguine with chicken. Our server, Carmen, offered cinnamon butter for my sweet potato. Salad is tossed and plated at the table. It arrived well ahead of the entrées. We had the house-made ranch dressing. Overall, it was a pretty bland salad, mostly iceberg lettuce. The grouper was wonderful, lightly breaded and the perfect crispness. The portion of 3 filets was more than adequate. A small tub of Ken's tartar sauce was included. The cinnamon butter and sweet potato made an excellent combination and a great foil for the grouper. Everything was piping hot when it arrived. I wouldn't hesitate to order this combination again. My husband enjoyed his linguine. Given it was about an hour between when we were seated and when the entrées arrived, we thought the pace was rather slow. But the quality and quantity of food made up for it in my opinion.

Nonetheless I will definitely return to enjoy another dish.
